Welcome to Joe.Blog, the second time around.
Joe.Blog was a dumb little unoriginally-named blog that I had from around 2004 to 2010. At the time, it helped me find a voice online - such as it was - and I met a lot of people through it.
Blogging was incredible. I continue to be drawn to the idea of having your own self-managed space for your own musings and memories that isn't attached to someone else's platform. Somewhere you can share - in the most low-stakes manner possible - things that are in your mind. No vanity metrics and no temptation to perform to get reach. Just a simple space.
So I've brought this back. I've been gradually deleting all of my social media accounts and replacing them with disposable burner accounts. This is my only channel for chatter. It probably means nothing, but it's mine.
